canada 200 in ujsjl 2j0 xi v nolan son publishers notes and comments speculation on north york election the conservatives are trying to arrive at the reason they lost north york in the federal election after- feeling so confident that they had their hands fairly on the prize forearl toole it did look that way to them but hot to the liberals who felt they had just as good a chance as the conservatives whatever happened the ccf took an awful flop right after the provincial contest and major woods who was feared in north york by both parties almost dropped out of the picture that was proven on election day when he polled a small vote instead of being a serious contestant as was believed the story goes that the ccf sold out to the liberals and let it be known the last few days that major woods would not seriouly contest the seat but would appreciate his supporters swinging to jack smith liberal sounds a bit fantastic yet whatever the cause the qcf switched their votes by the hundreds to support the liberal candidate but who had such power over ccf voters as to inducethem to change horses overnight our honest opinion is that the liberal machine in north york is a bit more powerful than the tory machine and did a better job for its candidate col w p mulock who retired from the nomination in favor of jack smith was in the riding the last week and rumor has it that the former member would never have relinquished the seat if he had believed he could have won the riding again that may be the fact but col mulock wnuld never admit it we imagine looking at the outcome and the background memberelect jack smith has a right to sit back and enjoy a hearty laugh crimes of the concentration camps when- hitler and his gangsters seized power jthey established a system of

they allowed their socialist government to master t them completely there can be no doubt that ohre the war started and the german armies were sweeping everytfiing before them the great mass of the german people werecarriedaway by the sight and power and conquest they heiled hitler as a great conqueror and if they had any qualms of conscience over the inhuman crimes of the gestapo they were power less to protest they probably came to believe that hitlers promised social security and thousand years of peace under an almighty german empire justified the means so far as the civilian population of germany is con- cerned they have already been punished and humiliated to the very dust of their cities for their part in the crimes of the war they have only to look around them to realize their guilt and their folly in allowing themselves to come under a system of government which robbed them of their political and personal freedom by promises of a national socialist utopia it would be hard to imagine the people of canada being fooled by- such promises or submitting to the dictatorship of one man or one political party such horrible atrocities as were committed in german concentration camps would not be tolerated by the canadian people or any other people in a free democracy but if the people of canada were to adopt any form of state socialism they would eventually

many of the nazi ringleaders are concerned that question has already been disposed of by suicide- hitler goebbels himmler and others of the gangster chiefs have sat in judgment on themselves found themselves guilty pronounced sentence of death and straightway carried it out we should thank them for that since they have saved us the trouble and expense of litigation and the rather messy job of shooting or hanging them in that respectthey show good judgment and did at least one good deed for mankind f i someone has said that you cannot indict a nation and- it would beunjust to accuse the

elections and anyone eligible to vote may have his or her name entered on the ballot provided they obtain 100 sponsors on their nomination papers in a dominion contest however with only a mover and seconder required the candidate must put up 200 cash which is forfeited if he or she fails to poll a certain percentage of the vote recorded in the dominion contest the country gained some 65000 from candidates across canada who failed to poll sufficient vote the arrangement is just it costs a lot of money to print ballots and other materials for candidates and they should be reasonably sure of
